Under the bonnet4.0/10

How it drives4.0/10

Too big and combersome, or too small gear for the size car.

Aesthetics and styling6.0/10

Looks nice, smooth exterior and a stylish but simple interior.

Overall verdict4.0/10

Cheap and nasty. Small little things started to go wrong, plastic fittings falling off, dashboard warping and the like. Now the engine cuts out randomly whilst driving and won't start for up to half an hour. Nearly $1000 that we realy did not have in mechanics bills and diagnostics later and everyone is still scratching their heads about it. Added to this it handles terribly, it has a massive turning circle and it's pick-up sucks. Basicly is it a small car pretending to be a big car. Probably was a nice car new but I've come to realise that Hyundai is Korean for "sell me after two years".
